POLICE IN THE WAY.
The Black Pearl and Tom Devin,
rot Allowed to Fight.

About hundred sports cOngregated
at barn OH Invent y-sixth street.
Minneapolis, last night, to see George
Harris, the Black Pearl, and Tom
Deyine box twenty-five rounds. The
match was announced over week ago. and
there had been no intimation of police in
reference. Last night Aid. Albert Law
renee became greatly exercised that what
he termed prize fight should come
off within the sacred precincts of
the Eighth ward. He appealed to the
mayor and that functionary said that he
would endeavor to preserve the peace and
as result two patrol wagons were drawn
up in front of the livery stable at which the
fight was to take place and the audience
dispersed rapidly. Col. Hill, who headed
the police, said:
/ have understood that prize fight was to
come off here tonight. want il understood
that it will not occur if it can be prevented.
Understand that do not mean to interfere
with legitimate sport, but no fight against the
laws of the state is to be allowed.
This settled the question of the pugilistic
encounter, and Hank Seeley, who seemed
to be the principal leader of the affair, paid
back the money to those who had purchased
admission tickets, saying:
Gentlemen, we do not care to interfere
with the police. This contest might have
| taken place in public as well as i'll private,
but we thought that the question of superb
ority could be more quietly settled in private.
While several persons offered to furnish a
room for the fight Seeley would not accept,
saying that he only intended that glove
contest should take place. 1t is thought

The Standard of Value.

LONDON, Feb. 2S.-In the house of
lords this evening the Duke of Marlborough
called attention to the currency question,
urging special consideration of the effects
VIII CHI the depreciation OF gold, with the
| present difference in the exchange value of
| the rupee, may have on trade and agricul-
| ture in Great Britain. Lord Salisbury said
| the currency commission would duly con-
slider the subject. He thought the effects
| of the depreciation of gold had been eXag-
gerated in many other obvious cases of
hard times and bad seasons. The extreme
competition of America was not produced
by any fall or rise in the standard OF value
but chiefly was due to the acceler-
alton of the means of communication. 1t is
not yet proved that any government
had the power to remedy a disturbance of
the standard of value, or that it was posi-
BILE to get rid of the difference between the
standards of India and Europe. Every
thing as yet learned showed that to recon-
cile the difference was a task of extreme
difficulty. He had a number of schemes
for altering the standard OF value, but never
one that could commend itself to the judg-
ment of any minsty. Surprising it posi-
bic to establish a permanent relation be-
tween the values of silver and gold, it
could only be done by an agreement be-
tween all the coin using nations of the
world. What chance was there of such an
agreement being reached? They must adj
vance very much more along the path of
international concert before such an
achievement could be anything but specula-
ton.

CONCERT NOTES.
The orchestra won the hearts of the audience
before the first strain was completed. The
highest compliment that could be given the
musicians Is that the orchestra was lit to ac-
company the singing OF Adelipa Patti.
A large number of elegant toilets were In
the house. So many natural roses were worn
that the whole hall was sweet with their
fragrance
The stage setting looked very handsome,
but the tiers OF bonnets and waving fans at
the other end Of the hall was 4 finer sight.
1t required about dozen people to keen
the crowd from crushing each other when
